Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
The second album from this San Franciscan-based drums and bass and decks 3-piece follows the deranged hip-hop schematic set out by their debut, Monostereois. Working with a limited palette allows for endlessly inventive permutations of cross-fading, strings and skins. To that end, "Lesson 7" boldly follows in the footsteps of hip-hop classics from Double Dee & Steinski (Lessons 1-3), DJ Shadow ("Lesson 4"), and Jurassic 5's Cut Chemist ("Lesson 6"). Wah-wah double bass, kettle drums and heavy metal scratch theatrics prefigure in this new school of higher learning. "2AM" is a tour de force of tumbling, phased drum and bass rhythms and hearing-impaired electronic screeching kept in check by the solid pluck of the double bass. "Luck Hullabagunshot" takes its title from a literal translation of the sound of the spliced samples that open the track, which continues like the prelude to a Dario Argento splatterfest with tribal drums and the sustained screams of a plucked guitar. Genetically-spliced, diced, mixed and EQed, Elefish Jellyphant is peculiar animal. --Chris Campion

Everything Live Human releases is unique and impressive. Their newest release "Live Human, Live" on Hip Hop Slam is their best ever and was recorded live at the Great American Music Hall is San Francisco, CA. I highly suggest it... makes a great gift for Mother's Day.

Way too cool!,
By djpuppyt (Funkytown, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Elefish Jellyphant (Audio CD)
This maybe the new jazz or hiphop of tomorrow. This is great stuff. The tightest rhythm section I've heard. The DJ (DJ Quest) is one the best I've heard in a long time. If you buy only one cd this year and you want something different this is the one to buy. This is one of the few cd's that I can listen to over and over again and enjoy every song without skipping one.
